Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and essayist, Richard Hugo, reminds us that the work of a fledgling writer "may be of no importance to the world of high culture, but it may be very important to the student. It is a small thing, but it is also small and wrong to forget or ignore lives that can use a single microscopic moment of personal triumph." ~ Richard Hugo, “In Defense of Creative-Writing Classes” ~ The Triggering Town: Lectures and Essays on Poetry and Writing (1979)
